The Eastern Imperial Civil War is a series of conflicts that occurred at the same time in the Eastern portion of the Mercurian Empire. Years of Anti-Imperialist sentiment in a number of eastern realms of the Mercurian Empire lead to the declarations of independence from the Empire from the realms of Östlæd and South Ertia. The realm of Östlond was created by Pro-Imperial forces in Östlæd following the Östron declaration. Civil war broke out in both Ertia and Östæd, followed by a South Ertian invasion of the neutral realm of Caecca.
